January 13th. Sea View, our home, from across the lawn. A difficult house to encapsulate – it is long and rambling, but the palms and the hedge framed an area of the porch pretty nicely so I went to work from there. Looking for warms under the porch roof and keeping mass in the palms, noting the different characters of the palms, the huge Canary Island palms compared to the pair of palmettos. Cooling roof shadows below the temperature of the blue sky.
